How to control the display device to display in the first display mode, the second display mode and the third display mode is described below with reference to fig. 3 to 5.
As shown in fig. 3, the display device 100 may include: display screen 10, polarization converter 20, imaging lens group 30, transflective layer 40, reflective polarizing layer 50, liquid crystal lens 60.
Wherein the display screen 10 is configured to display an image. The Display screen 10 may be one of a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD), a Micro Light Emitting Diode (Micro-LED), an Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED), and a Micro Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED), which is not limited herein.
The polarization converter 20 is located on the light emitting side of the display screen 10 and configured to convert the outgoing light of the display screen 10 into first circularly polarized light.
The imaging lens group 30 is located on the light-emitting side of the display screen 10, and the imaging lens group 30 at least comprises a first lens 301.
The transflective layer 40 is located between the polarization converter 20 and the first lens 301.
The reflective polarizing layer 50 is located on one side of the transflective layer 40 away from the polarization converter 20, and is used for reflecting the first linearly polarized light and transmitting the second linearly polarized light; the polarization directions of the first linearly polarized light and the second linearly polarized light are crossed, for example, the polarization directions of the first linearly polarized light and the second linearly polarized light are perpendicular to each other.
The liquid crystal lens 60 is located between the transflective layer 40 and the reflective polarizing layer 50.
It should be noted that, in practical production, the polarization converter 20 may be directly attached to the surface of the display screen 10 facing the imaging lens assembly 30, and the polarization converter 20 may adopt a circular polarizer. In addition, the transflective layer 40 may be disposed on a surface of the liquid crystal lens 60 on a side facing away from the reflective polarizing layer 50; the reflective polarizing layer 50 is disposed on the surface of the liquid crystal lens 60 facing away from the transflective layer 40, so that a substrate for supporting the above-mentioned layers can be omitted, and the installation of each element in the display device 100 is more convenient.
When the target display mode is the first display mode, step S20 may specifically include: the display screen 10 is controlled to display an image, and the liquid crystal lens 60 is controlled to generate a first phase retardation amount when the display screen 10 displays an image, wherein the first phase retardation amount may be 0, that is, the liquid crystal lens 60 is equivalent to a flat glass, and the phase difference between o light and e light is 0, so that no phase retardation is generated after the light passes through the liquid crystal lens 60, and the polarization state is not changed.
The light emitted from the display screen 10 is converted into a first circularly polarized light after passing through the polarization converter 20; after the first circularly polarized light enters the transflective layer 40, part of the light is transmitted, other part of the light is reflected, and the light transmitted by the transflective layer 40 is still the first circularly polarized light; the first circularly polarized light transmitted by the transflective layer 40 is still the first circularly polarized light after passing through the liquid crystal lens 60; the first circularly polarized light transmitted by the liquid crystal lens 60 may be decomposed into components parallel and perpendicular to the transmission axis of the reflective polarizing layer 50, and the component parallel to the transmission axis of the reflective polarizing layer 50 may transmit through the reflective polarizing layer 50 to be incident to the preset viewing position, a virtual image at the first position V1 may be viewed by human eyes of the preset viewing position, and the distance between the first position V1 and the preset viewing position is s 1.
When the target display mode is the second display mode, step S20 may specifically include: the display screen 10 is controlled to display an image, and the liquid crystal lens 60 is controlled to generate a second phase retardation amount when the display screen 10 displays the image, wherein the second phase retardation amount is pi/2 or an odd multiple of pi/2, namely the phase difference between o light and e light is pi/2 or an odd multiple of pi/2, at this time, the liquid crystal lens 60 is equivalent to a quarter-wave plate, and then the first circularly polarized light is converted into the first linearly polarized light after passing through the liquid crystal lens 60.
The light emitted from the display screen 10 is converted into a first circularly polarized light after passing through the polarization converter 20; after the first circularly polarized light passes through the transflective layer 40, part of the light is transmitted, other part of the light is reflected, and the light transmitted by the transflective layer 40 is still the first circularly polarized light; the first circularly polarized light transmitted by the transflective layer 40 is converted into first linearly polarized light after passing through the liquid crystal lens 60; the reflective polarizing layer 50 serves to reflect the first linearly polarized light and transmit the second linearly polarized light, so that the first linearly polarized light converted by the liquid crystal lens 60 is reflected when being incident to the reflective polarizing layer 50; the first linearly polarized light reflected by the reflective polarizing layer 50 is incident to the liquid crystal lens 60 again, and the liquid crystal lens 60 converts the first linearly polarized light into first circularly polarized light again; the first circularly polarized light converted by the liquid crystal lens 60 is incident to the transflective layer 40, after the first circularly polarized light is incident to the transflective layer 40, part of the light is transmitted, other part of the light is reflected, the rotation direction of the circularly polarized light reflected by the transflective layer 40 is changed into reverse, and the circularly polarized light is converted into second circularly polarized light; the second circularly polarized light reflected by the transflective layer 40 is incident to the liquid crystal lens 60, and at this time, the liquid crystal lens 60 converts the second circularly polarized light into second linearly polarized light; the reflective polarizing layer 50 is configured to reflect the first linearly polarized light and transmit the second linearly polarized light, so that the second linearly polarized light converted by the liquid crystal lens 60 is transmitted when entering the reflective polarizing layer 50 and enters the preset viewing position, a human eye at the preset viewing position can view a virtual image at the second position V2, and a distance between the second position V2 and the preset viewing position is s 2.
When the target display mode is the third display mode, step S20 may specifically include: controlling the display screen 10 to alternately display a first image and a second image, and controlling the liquid crystal lens to generate the first phase delay amount while controlling the display screen 10 to display the first image; and controlling the liquid crystal lens 60 to generate the second phase retardation amount while controlling the display screen 10 to display the second image.
When the liquid crystal lens 60 is controlled to be switched between the first phase delay amount and the second phase delay amount, the optical path of the light in the display device 100 is changed, that is, the object distance of the light when the light enters the first lens 301 is changed, so that human eyes can alternately see virtual images at the first position V1 and the second position V2, and the human eyes can see images with certain depth of field, thereby achieving a three-dimensional display effect.
It should be noted that the frequency of displaying the first image and the second image on the display screen 10 should be fast enough, so that the human eye may think that the first image and the second image are displayed at the same time due to the persistence of vision effect of the human eye, so that the human eye may perceive a three-dimensional stereoscopic image. For example, the display time of each image is about 5ms, and the image refresh frequency of the display screen is greater than or equal to 200 Hz.
Optionally, the ratio of the transmittance to the reflectance of the transflective layer 40 is 1:1, so that the luminance of the virtual image seen by the human eye at the first position is the same as the luminance of the virtual image seen by the human eye at the second position.
The first circularly polarized light may be right-circularly polarized light, and the second circularly polarized light may be left-circularly polarized light; or the first circularly polarized light may be left circularly polarized light, and the second circularly polarized light may be right circularly polarized light, which is not limited herein.
The conversion of the polarization state of light in the display device 100 will be specifically described by taking the example that the emergent light from the display screen 10 is converted into right-handed circularly polarized light after passing through the polarization converter 20.
When the phase retardation generated by the liquid crystal lens 60 is 0, the right-handed circularly polarized light converted by the polarization converter 20 is still right-handed circularly polarized light after passing through the transflective layer 40 and the liquid crystal lens 60, and is converted into linearly polarized light after passing through the reflective polarizing layer 50, and the linearly polarized light is incident to human eyes.
When the retardation generated by the lc lens 60 is pi/2 or an odd multiple of pi/2, the lc lens 60 is equivalent to a quarter-wave plate, and the fast axis direction thereof forms an angle of 45 ° with the transmission axis/reflection axis direction of the reflective polarizing layer 50. The right-handed circularly polarized light converted by the polarization converter 20 is still right-handed circularly polarized light after passing through the transflective layer 40, and is converted into linearly polarized light (0 °) after passing through the liquid crystal lens 60(+45 °), and the polarization direction thereof is parallel to the reflection axis of the reflective polarizing layer 50 and is reflected by the reflective polarizing layer 50. The reflected linearly polarized light (0 °) is converted into the right-handed circularly polarized light after passing through the liquid crystal lens 60(-45 °), the right-handed circularly polarized light is converted into the left-handed circularly polarized light after being reflected by the transflective layer 40, the right-handed circularly polarized light is converted into the linearly polarized light (90 °) after passing through the liquid crystal lens 60(+45 °), the polarization direction of the linearly polarized light is parallel to the transmission axis of the reflective polarizing layer 50, and the linearly polarized light is transmitted by the reflective polarizing layer 50 and enters human eyes.
In particular implementation, as shown in fig. 3 to 5, the imaging lens group 30 may further include a second lens 302; the second lens 302 may be disposed between the polarization converter 20 and the transflective layer 40 (as shown in fig. 1-3); alternatively, the second lens 302 may be disposed between the polarization converter 20 and the display screen 10 (not shown), and is not limited herein.

Likewise, when the user selects the second display mode, the display control means may control each display device 100 to display in the second display mode; also, the images displayed on the display screens 10 of the two display apparatuses 100 may be different at the same time, so that the user perceives a three-dimensional image displayed in the far field.
It should be noted that, when the display device 100 is controlled to perform the display in the initial display mode, the specific manner is similar to step S20, that is, when the initial display mode is the first display mode, the liquid crystal lens 60 is controlled to generate the first phase delay amount when the display screen 10 displays the image; when the initial display mode is the second display mode, controlling the liquid crystal lens 60 to generate a second phase delay amount when the display screen 10 displays the image; when the initial display mode is the third display mode, the display screen 10 is controlled to alternately display the first image and the second image, the liquid crystal lens 60 is controlled to generate the first phase delay amount when the display screen 10 displays the first image, and the liquid crystal lens 60 is controlled to generate the second phase delay amount when the display screen 10 displays the second image.
In some embodiments, the step S20 may be further followed by outputting execution result information, for example, when the step S20 fails to execute, for example, when the liquid crystal lens 60 fails to be controlled to reach the corresponding state, notification information may be output to notify the user of the failure of mode switching; alternatively, step S20 may be executed again. When the execution of step S20 is successful, the display device 100 is controlled to output the text image of "mode switching successful". Of course, the output mode of the execution result information may be a sound, vibration, or the like.
